Bayern Munich, top-flight Bundesliga top-scorer Robert Lewandowski
and teammate Thomas Muller, will miss Borussia Moenchengladbach in
a match that could clinch the title next week.

they would miss the pair Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller
because of the suspension after each of them received 5 yellow cards

Saturday, then the defending champion defeated Mönchengladbach on
the same day, or the decision may be postponed to another round.

scorer with 30 goals, but he is still 10 goals behind the record achieved by
Gerd Muller in the 1971-1972 season, while Muller leads the list of
passers who decisively made 20 goals, the most recent of which was
the Polish striker yesterday.

their path towards the German first division football title 4 rounds
before the end.
